TO LIVE AND TO SURVIVE ARE BOTH THE ART OF NATURE.
To do or not to do.
Already done or will not be done.
Are not the things.
We are capable to choose.
We can do.
We can change.
We can fight.
But the end.
Will be only what the destiny reveals.
A man always dreams.
Beyond his own cage.
Called as death.
Hi's stepping forward.
Enduring all the suffering and pain.
Till the time ends.
And last drop found.
Until then, the journey must continue...

GAYONG FRANCE-IRELAND of IPO 2008

It is just that i miss those anak gayongs who were with me during all along year 2008. It is indeed not an easy job to create something from zero. Moreover, me and almost of my Gayong brothers and sisters in Ireland, France and UK are students: engineering, business, finance, accounting, medics and so on. We are not full time Pesilat, although we train everyday. We are not paid for this, but we do for the sake of Gayong. We are occupied with our studies and examinations, but still when time comes to do the demonstrations, we sacrifice some of our precious time and concentration just because it's our obligation to promote this art. If i'm not mistaken i've been to Ireland, 6 times just in 2008. Even I recognize every custom officers at the Beauvais airport because of that! Spending my time at the Gayong Ireland's President, Taro, a future doctor of RSCI, i've always received a warm welcome from them. Kak Izdza,the super senior (already went back to malaysia for good) and others formed a really good group.

Eventhough we undergo some technical problem with RSCI, I am completely positive and optimist for the future of Gayong Ireland. I think it is the time for Anak Gayong in Ireland to be more independant, rather than depending on the university. Our association is legal, and should continue the activities no matter the problem is. Concerning the expenditure of holding any ceremony, we must create a way to generate the economy. Make a self-defence seminars, or a cultural night, or books and CDs to be sold, by the name of Gayong Ireland.

My hope, this opening of 2009/2010, we will do a better and stronger association. The future of our bonding is in our hands. And me, I'll give my full strength, blood and tears to make that what we have started will last for our next generation.... Amin.

Selamat Datang, Ahlan Wa Sahlan, Bonjour, Welcome and Merhaba!

Learning Silat Seni Gayong from Masters and Senior Gurulatihs all around Malaysia, I am welcoming you to this modest blog of Narapatinantaboga™, as another humble effort of introducing this Malay martial art to the public from me as the Chief Gurulatih (Directeur Technique) of Association Francaise Silat Seni Gayong (A.F.S.S.G), FRANCE. It is important for all Anak Gayong all over the world to be well informed about what's happening inside the country and knowing the Gayong Masters who used to be the loyal disciples of the late Mahaguru Dato' Meor Abdul Rahman Bin Daeng Uda Mat Hashim. He was the grandson of Syed Zainal Abidin Al-Attas and the great grandson of Tengku Daeng Kuning (Panglima Hitam) from royal lineage of Bugis King Daeng Merewah.

I start teaching Silat Seni Gayong in France since 2003 and our official Gelanggang was opened in 2005 until now after having the Ijazah (permission) of opening this school in France and Ireland. I am recently a lecturer at Faculty of Manufacturing Engineering, Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP), PEKAN, PAHANG and teach Silat Seni Gayong to UMP students since 2011 under the name of Gelanggang Naga Rantau.

Find us at Paris,Lille, Montpellier, Toulouse, or UMP (my international training center @ Malaysia) and join us at:

I am still learning and always looking for a new martial art fraternity for the love of God.
